Hello and welcome to Best Laid Plans. This is your host, Sarah Hart Unger, and this is July of

2021. And as I mentioned, I am going to be taking a little bit of a break from new episodes

during this month. However, I thought it would be really fun to bring you some of our greatest

hits from the archives. We may not have, you know, piles and

hundreds of archive episodes, but there are still some really fun past episodes and guests that

I would love to reshare with you from previous months. So I've picked four of my favorites

and we'll be airing them this month before I am back with brand new content in August. So here we go with our first

previous favorite episode. Hello and welcome to Best Lead Plans episode. This is your host, Sarah Hart Unger,

and this is the podcast where we talk about all things planning and planner related. I'm so excited

to be at this episode. It's another one of the planning concept episodes, which we're going to do

every four episodes approximately. And

this one was a listener-generated idea, which was an episode about how to build a planning

system from the ground up. This sounds kind of basic, but I think it's more of a deep dive

into the elements that I feel are necessary in making up a functioning planning system.

I'm not going to necessarily provide prescriptive item ideas.

And I promise.

I know there are some of you waiting for more brand-specific reviews and they are coming in some future episodes.

But this is more about, you know, what are the pieces that you need to have in

place in order to build up a successful system for yourself that you will actually use

every day? And for the person that wrote, they kind of wanted an idea if they had nothing

to start with, how would you go about building it? And I thought that was a great kind of

framework to put things in.
